about

Written by Marty about what we THINK it might be like to be super rich & famous!

lyrics

Hey there Max do you remember this song
You played the chorus & I sang along
You were wasted at the time
But all the same you thought we sounded alright

Now that was back at the start of the year
We're top 5 now with a bullet
And the cash is rolling on in
Even if it rolls on by there's a first time for everything

All over this town at any one time
It's the sound of us
They're driving us round
We're losing our minds
It's the sound of us/We were good friends once

Do you remember when you got your first kiss
Picture that in a thousand young lips
Everybody say yeah & everybody smile
Sound check & show from a limousine ride

Four star room at the back of the stage
It's all sex & drugs & rock'n'roll rage
That's my 67 Pontiac
Think I'l ride out with the top down & never look back

I got tired & I got sad
For the freedom that I once had
To go out into the street
Without strange eyes & hands all over me again

Now I'm a spirit on the other side
Whatch you weeping at my last goodbye
It was all too soon for us
It was all too much & I'll miss you forever
